The Challenge

Manual processes couldn’t scale across 300,000 people and 15,000+ assessments.

Analyst time was being eaten by routing, fixes, and reporting — while M&A and SBOM requirements pushed volume higher.

Key issues included:

01

Manual processes

Could not keep pace with growing questionnaire volumes and program complexity.

02

Analyst time wasted

Time spent routing requests, correcting submissions, and gathering evidence.

03

Assessment bottlenecks

Limited capacity to support increasing high-risk assessments.

04

Expanding program demands

M&A and SBOM pressure increased program demands.

05

Need for an AI-native lifecycle

Incremental automation was insufficient for the scale and complexity of the program.

The organization needed a more scalable, intelligent operating model for third-party security risk management.

Why ProcessUnity

A flexible platform aligned with an agentic vision for TPSRM.

The team needed lifecycle-wide automation, AI-driven intelligence, and an architecture built for agents — under human oversight.

The team gained:

  • Full TPSRM lifecycle support from intake through continuous monitoring
  • Lifecycle-wide automation for speed and consistency
  • AI-enabled classification, evidence evaluation, and risk intelligence
  • Multi-agent architecture with intelligent workflows under human oversight
  • Global scale across a complex supplier ecosystem
  • A platform aligned with an agentic vision for TPSRM

Implementation

AI agents and intelligent automation, lifecycle-wide.

The full TPSRM lifecycle was redesigned around classification, due diligence, remediation, and continuous monitoring with AI in the loop.

  • Classification, due diligence, remediation, and continuous monitoring on the TPRM Platform
  • AI agents to automate intake, improve classification, and reduce submission errors
  • AI to locate supplier trust centers and enable contactless assessments for low-risk suppliers
  • Cognitive AI to evaluate supplier evidence and streamline analyst review
  • Automated downstream workflows for ratings, reporting, incident intake, and risk response
  • A conversational AI assistant for analysts across lifecycle stages
